sorry to be dense, but are you looking for pictures to persuade her it is a bad idea, or pictures to work from to try to accede to her request?
You might get by with partially boning the bodice of the dress itself or something. Darn -- Moresca.com has taken its site down for repairs; I remember them as having pictures of women both in and out of corsetry in both large and small bodies. Good luck!
